How to apply a specific pipe property to a Reducer in AutoPIPE?
One must first consider, what is driving the decision on which pipe property to be used by a Reducer.
a. Is it going to be the PipeID on the large end of the reducer?
or
b. Is it going to be the PipeID on the small end of the reducer?
Which ever you choose try to be consistent when modeling a reducer. The best place to make changes to the Pipe Properties applied between 2 node points in AutoPIPE is on the Press / Temp / PipeID tab of the input grids. On this tab find a column labled "Pipe ID".
Select a cell at the intersection of the "Pipe ID" column and appropriate row (identified by "From" - "To" Node points), will show a drop down listing where one can choose the required setting as needed.
